Default Disable Airbag on SUNFIRE? accident..

Alright my girlfriend has a 95 sunfire SE, and she was involved in an accident. the front end of her car needs alot of new parts. she hit a vehical and now the frame is a little bent towards the drivers side, but i believe i can bang it back into place. but doing this i think will deploy the airbags so the first thing i want to know is how can i disable the airbags?

also, if anyone has parts or suggestions for me because i need to change the rad, the ac, the front bumber and rebar, the fenders and the hood and also i need to change the front support/subframe. and i need a left front headlight.

any suggestions or anything i should know? i got the car all apart just need the parts to get this back together and get the frame back a little so it doesnt cause any more problems..

the airbag is the issue id like to know more about....

btw ~ price on parts quote (1000canadian)
hood,fenders,lights,bumper,rad/support,frontsupport

please let me know ASAP

1500 on the car is still owing so it must be worth it, she doesnt really have an option...

and this forum is 'anything goes'. if you know nothing about sunfires, you dont have to type smart guy. stop speaking for everyone. id hate for you to be talking for me.

Yes this is a general discussion forum, but I was just stating that you may have a better response from a bodywork oriented forum, not a turbo oriented forum. Relax, we love to talk ---- here and if you can't handle it then move on, bud. Its all in good fun around here. And yesm I was talking for the whole forum, I am the spokesperson. Regardless of what anyone else says.

Speaks for me


-BTW, Did you read the manaul ? Specifically says in my Suby manual, airbags will only diploy while key is in the on position. If you are really worried remove the fuse to the sensors

^^^^
That spelling is horable

handle it? u must not have read what i wrote because it wasnt sarcastic or anything, i stated what it was. i wasnt rude just stated the facts, i know what forums are good for what, but i feel HMT is the best forum around, and the ppl on here are great so id post, specially since i know a few ppl here with sunfires.
im not out of line, and the obvious doesnt always have to be posted. 9 outta 10 ppl can read between the lines and understand this is a TURBO site, but this forum is a general discussion forum and whats more general about disabiling an air bag?
lemme post, dont jack my thread with heat about what and where i should be posting on a general forum. i posted on a few different places already, im looking for a quick responce.
